But once babies are this age, it is on the normal spectrum for there
to be many days between stools. No treatment or intervention is
needed.
We have had this discussion before on Lactnet and I know there is one
subscriber who feels very strongly this this is not normal - but the
consensus among the rest of the 'Lactnet body' is that it is
absolutely fine after the first weeks.
